The efficiency is being driven by making students and tutors aware that Eduwizards has a lot more to offer them than others.”

Leading USA and India companies providing App-based tutoring don't even have App-based whiteboard, let alone whiteboard with voice. We are also the first Indian Education company to develop IRT Adaptive technology in-house. Our NCERT Solutions and other apps are all favourites among students.”
